Equates Zen with Scientology Practice

Is there anything you would change about this book?

There is very very little about practicing Zen in daily life in the book, and that discussion is odd.

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

The author discusses the history of Buddhism.

Did F. C. McAllister do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?

There were no characters. The narrator is good.

Do you think Zen: How to Practice Zen Everywhere in Your Daily Life needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

This author draws parallels between Zen and Scientology. The author treats Zen and Scientology "clear"practice as being equal. I found this jarring, and In light of it, I wouldn't trust anything that this author writes about Zen.

Any additional comments?

Very disappointing, possibly dishonest..
